Table 1.

	shape similarity	function similarity	color similarity	manipulation similarity
shape condition (24 pairs)	6.2 (0.8)	1.1 (0.3)	2.8 (1.4)	2.0 ( 0.9)
function condition (32 pairs)	1.7 (0.9)	6.3 (0.7)	4.0 (1.7)	4.0 (1.3)

Mean relatedness ratings for pairs used in Experiments 1 & 2. Standard deviations are in parentheses. Instructions were as follows: shape: “Picture the things that the words refer to and rate them according to how likely they are to be the same shape”; function: “Rate the following pairs of objects according to how similar their functions (i.e., purposes) are”; color: “Picture the objects that the words refer to and rate them according to how likely they are to be the same color”; manipulation: “Consider the typical movements you make when you use these objects and rate how similar the movements are.”
